You should know by now how you rated on Santa’s ‘Naughty or Nice’ list, but in case you missed that fully satisfied Yuletide feeling, we’re back with a few more very cool items to brighten even the dreariest January day.

RITCHEY DA10 Ti-BREAKAWAY
A great gift for folks that are on the go, while eh… on the go. Ritchey’s new “break away” in Ti/Carbon is simply a great Ti/Carbon bike. That it folds up and fits in a checkable standard sized piece of luggage (and saves you from less-than-cool looking travel bikes) is just a bonus.

BC2A DESIGN ALUMINUM PEDAL INSERTS
BC2A Design uses CNC machined 7075 series aluminum for their pedal plates, which saves over 20 grams of rotational weight from the already light Speedplay X series pedals. These heat-treated and hardened aerospace grade inserts replace the heavier stainless inserts that are supplied with all X series pedals. They are anodized to US Military specifications and made in the USA.
• MSRP $39.95
• Colors: silver, black and red.

SMOOTH RIDE ANTI-CHAFE CREAM By UnConMed
The folks at Unconventional Medicinals have added their own anti-chafe cream – perfect for use with all kinds of chamois and other areas you don’t want ‘chafing’. They’re big on natural ingredients, no animal testing, and using recycled packaging, but I was really sold on the quality of this concoction. I’ve been using it for 3 months, through some super rainy rides with soaking wet chamois, and have found this one of the best chamois creams I’ve tried. It even has peppermint oil for that fresh minty scent, and on oddly tingly sensation…
• $11.99 per 8 oz bottle

eSoles Custom Foot Beds
Knee pain, back pain, and yes… even foot pain are common to us cyclists – which is why proper fitting shoes are as important as a proper fitting bike, and luckily the guys at eSoles.com can get you grounded. They make a 3 dimensional laser scan of your foot, then create a full length footbed specifically for you. They’re pretty new, but their scanners are coming to an event near you – just check the website for info. And they’re serious about this biz – offering a 6 month fit right guarantee. If they’re good enough for top pros like Hincapie, Zabriskie, Leipheimer and Landis, they’re probably good enough for you too.
